Characters and realizations of representations of an infinite-dimensional Hecke algebra, and knot invariants. (English. Russian original) Zbl 0716.20008

Sov. Math., Dokl. 38, No. 1, 134-137 (1989); translation from Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR 301, No. 4, 777-780 (1988).
In this paper we obtain q-analogues of our results [in Funkts. Anal. Prilozh. 15, No.4, 15-27 (1981; Zbl 0507.20006) and Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR 257, 1037-1040 (1981; Zbl 0534.20008)] on characters and quotient representations of the symmetric group \({\mathfrak S}_{\infty}\) for an infinite-dimensional Hecke algebra \(H_{\infty}(q)\) and we realize its quotient representation, using certain solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. As an application we deduce in a simple way some recent results of Jones and others on new knot invariants.
